Izzy Irons Interview
Izzy Irons: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another exclusive segment as we gear up for Rumble City. Joining me now is the enigmatic and, dare I say, controversial manager of Prime International Talent, “Malevolent” Mickey Malloy. Mickey, thanks for making time.
Malevolent Mickey Malloy: Oh, Izzy, the pleasure is all yours. After all, you’re getting the rare treat of hearing from the man pulling all the strings behind the future of wrestling. Shall we begin?
Izzy Irons: Straight to business, I like it. Rumors have been swirling about your presence at Rumble City and what it means for the PWL. Some are even calling your arrival… a threat. Care to comment on that?
Malevolent Mickey Malloy: A threat? My dear Izzy, it’s not a threat—it’s a promise. A promise that wrestling as the fans know it is about to evolve. P.I.T. is here to bring the edge back to this industry. My new, unnamed talent? Just wait. When the time is right, they’ll leave their mark so deeply that the PWL will never look the same.
Izzy Irons: That’s a bold claim. But you’ve also stated you’re just here to scout. Is that really the case?
Malevolent Mickey Malloy: Scout is such a… diplomatic way to put it. Yes, I’m observing, analyzing, making notes. But rest assured, Izzy, when P.I.T. strikes—and we will—it won’t just be for some fleeting fame. It’ll be calculated. Methodical. Everyone in that locker room will realize too late what’s about to hit them.
Izzy Irons: Is there a particular match or champion you’ve got your eye on?
Malevolent Mickey Malloy: Now, now, Izzy. A magician never reveals his tricks. Neither do I. But tell me—don’t you think the Triple Threat Match has a nice ring to it for my kind of chaos? Or maybe the Tag Team Match needs a little… interference? Then again, the Women’s Championship Match is just brimming with untapped opportunities. Regardless, trust me when I say, P.I.T. is everywhere, and nowhere, all at once.
Izzy Irons: Mickey, some might see this as a ploy to disrupt what’s set to be one of the biggest wrestling events this year. What do you say to those critics?
Malevolent Mickey Malloy: Critics are just scared fans in disguise, Izzy. They know I bring momentum, that I rewrite futures. But disrupt? Nonsense. I prefer the term… elevate. Because whether you’re booing me or applauding me by the end of Rumble City, you’ll be talking about P.I.T.
[A sudden voice interrupts.]
Showtime Sammy Silverstein: Oh, give me a break, Mickey.
Izzy Irons: Folks, we’ve just been joined by none other than Showtime Sammy Silverstein! Sammy, what brings you here?
Showtime Sammy Silverstein: What brings me here, Izzy, is this guy’s nonstop scheming. Mickey, I’ve been hearing your little whispers backstage. You’ve got your so-called talent lined up to cause chaos? Well, here’s the deal—you so much as think about messing up this event, you’ll have consequences, and you won’t like them.
Malevolent Mickey Malloy: Sammy, Sammy, Sammy. What an… unexpected surprise. Do you see what I mean, Izzy? The fear. It just oozes out of these PWL puppets. Sammy, I assure you, nothing I do will be unlawful. Unbearably brilliant? Sure. But unlawful? Never.
Showtime Sammy Silverstein: You’ve been warned, Malloy. If any of your rowdy wrestlers even try to derail Rumble City, you’ll find out firsthand what happens when PWL doesn’t play nice.
Malevolent Mickey Malloy: Tsk, tsk. Such hostility, Sammy. But don’t worry—in time, everyone will understand why the P.I.T. way is the only way forward. And when they do? Even you won’t be able to stop us. Now, if you’ll excuse me, Izzy, I have important “scouting” to attend to.
Izzy Irons: Well, there you have it, wrestling fans—tempers flaring as the tension builds for Rumble City! Sammy, Mickey, thank you both for your time, and wrestling fans, don’t miss what promises to be one unforgettable event!
